We're dividing 396204 by 23 
We're looking to find how many times 23 goes into 396204.

On to step 1:
3 divided by 23 is 0 with a remainder of 3.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 3 leaves us with 3.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 3, then carry on: 39 / 23

Going ahead to step 2:
23 can be fit into 39 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 16.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 23 from 39, we get 16.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 16 and continue with: 166 / 23

On to step 3:
166 divided by 23 is 7 with a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17.0
Deduct 161 from 166 and we're left with 5.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 52 / 23

Advancing to step 4:
If we divide 52 by 23, we get 2 and a remainder of 6.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 172.0
If we subtract 46 from 52, we get 6.
Append the next digit (0) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 60 / 23

Moving on to step 5:
23 can be fit into 60 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 1722.0
If we take 46 away from 60, we end up with 14.
Include the next digit (4) from the dividend after 14, then repeat: 144 / 23

Moving on to step 6:
23 goes into 144 6 times with a remainder of 6.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17226.0
The remainder is 6 after subtracting 138 from 144.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 60 2 times, leaving a remainder of 14.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17226.2
If we subtract 46 from 60, we get 14.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 140, and continue the process.

Step 8:
When dividing 140 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17226.26
If we take 138 away from 140, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
If we divide 20 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17226.26
If we take 0 away from 20, we end up with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 200 by 23, we get 8 with a remainder of 16.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 17226.2608
If we subtract 184 from 200, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
When dividing 160 by 23, we get 6 with a remainder of 22.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17226.26086
If we subtract 138 from 160, we get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Step 12:
The number 23 fits into 220 9 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17226.260869
The remainder is 13 after subtracting 207 from 220.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
The number 23 fits into 130 5 times, leaving a remainder of 15.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17226.2608695
If we subtract 115 from 130, we get 15.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 150, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
23 can be fit into 150 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 12.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17226.26086956
Deduct 138 from 150 and we're left with 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17226.26086956 with a balance of 1.2e-08.
